to keep the front tires from wearing on the inside edges and getting noisy set the camber as close to zero (O) as possible

For mileage set the camber close to 0. I run camber at -0.10, toe and caster are set to spec which is found at the end of your search button.

As far as tracking issues on roads that have ruts? Fat chance. You have wide tires, They will do the dance on the ruts. Get used to it.
